Inside Bulgaria's Easter Celebrations: Traditions Passed Through Generations
Today marks the joyous celebration of Easter, one of the most significant holidays in the Orthodox Christian calendar.
The Editorial Staff of Novinite.com extends its warmest greetings to its Christian readers from around the world celebrating Easter on Sunday, April 4, 2010!
The 2010 Easter Date is unusual as it applies to both the western calendar (Catholic and Protestant Churches), and to the Eastern Orthodox church.
The two branches of Christianity have different methods for calculating the correct date for Easter and usually Bulgarians and other Eastern Orthodox nations celebrate it a week after the followers of the Western Christian churches.
There are only a few years each century when the Easter dates match like this so Easter 2010 is seen as extra special by Christians around the world.
We wish peace, good health, and much success to all of you!
